Well, there is one thing that's stupider. There's no cruise control. It's AP or nothing. If I just want the car to do nothing but hold the current speed, like my 1986 Chevrolet Camaro did, it doesn't have that feature. If the cameras don't work for some reason such as a heavy rainstorm, there's no "dumb mode" cruise control as a backup. I find that annoying.


I wouldn't be using cruise control during a heavy rainstorm. Standing water and hydroplaning plus cruise control = not a fun time.


Yeah this sounds crazy unsafe. Cruise control is for long boring drives down straight highways in high visibility.


If you pull down once on the stalk, it should activate cruise control, right? It's pulling down twice that activates autosteer.


That still does TACC. He wants cruise control without TACC. That is not possible in any modern Tesla, AFAIK. I believe the most recent to offer it was the Model 3 SR, which is no longer available. The SR+ and the Y SR both included AP with mandatory TACC.

Its weird, as other cars at least offer an option to disable TACC.
